I saw this film a few years ago and loved the style and grittiness of it. Larry Clarks direction and Harmony Korine's story tells a grim tale of skate kids in New York as they spend a day doing what they do best...smoking, drinking and hanging out with their friends. This film got a lot of press at the time about the downbeat tone of the film, as it covers underage sex, aids and gang violence but If you like quirky, gritty films this is for you. It has a cracking soundtrack by Lou Barlow as well.
While very very disturbing, this movie is an eye opener to adults who really have no idea what their kids get up to on a daily basis. I remember seeing this in the cinema (which was difficult as most cinemas refused to show it) and many (older) people walked out during the movie. It is a must see for young adults because there are some very important lessons to be learned about the youth of todays behaviour; and for parents as they really need to see what their 'little angels' are really getting up to when no ones around to guide them.
I bought this on a recommendation from a friend, very disturbing film but scarily good-bit like watching a car crash i guess! Doesnt leave you with much hope for the future-no happy endings for these kids! still definitely worth a watch-cult classic.
